Guys weekend

This is a great property for a large group on one of MN best lakes! John is a GREAT host... we have stayed at his place for the past three years... we were impressed the first year, and it only gets better every year. Outside of being a great property, all of the little things are thought of as well...from kitchen utensils to entertainment games. I highly recommend this place for your stay and John as your host.

Great Family Long Weekend

The cabin was great for our family vacation, it had something for all ages. It was clean and had plenty of space for our family of 8. The outside amenities were great and the lake is a great lake to spend the day on the boat.

Crosslake VRBO

Beautiful guest house that is located on a very nice lake. Located about 30 minutes from Brainerd. Quiet neighborhood during our May trip. Accommodations were very spacious and our larger family group fit easily. Highly recommend staying at this VRBO.

Quality property

We selected this lake house because it allowed pets. The house was well maintained and has many upgraded features. The owner was great to deal with. The only negatives are it does not have a lake view because it sits behind the larger owner's home. As a result, it does not have a patio or deck overlooking the lake.

This place was perfect for our group of 7 and 2 dogs. Beds were comfy and the pool table was an extra bonus. Loved that we could rent the pontoon from John at a much cheaper rate then anywhere else. John was quick to respond when we had a question. Overall great place with a great host!!

Spectacular!

We had our family stay here for a wedding weekend. It was perfect. The upstairs bar/pool table area is well appointed and beautifully finished. The beds are super comfortable. John was very accommodating and easy to communicate with. Having the ability to rent the pontoon is a real bonus.
